Vale Tony Benn. A Labour giant to the end surrounded by political midgets of all persuasions. Marched with him one Labour day on The Wirral and when he heard there were Australian friends marching, he took the time to come over to introduce himself and enquire about the parlous state of politics in Oz. John Howard was at the helm in those days and we thought he was a scourge to the working classes but how much worse is the current incumbent, Abbott. Despair at what's happening to this beautiful country is accompanied by anger at the sheer arrogance of this failed seminarian.
Wow! That feels better!
